2009/4/26 Rubén Romero y Cordero <[email protected]>: > Hi to you all! > > Following up the minutes and status of the SpreadUbuntu project I have > worked on some ideas we should work on before applying for going live as a > graduated Ubuntu Marketing Project. > > Meeting minutes and status can be seen here: > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Projects/SpreadUbuntu/Meetings#Meeting%20Q1 > > This ideas might imply a move to Drupal 6 which we have been discussing for > a while now. > > Following up yesterdays e-mail I have made a mockup for the site (available > at http://ubuntu.ec/ruben/su/sumockup.jpg ) proposing changes. In the mockup > I have divided the site in several areas (defined by numbers). > > I will now go through what my ideas for the different section are: > > 1. Web 2.0ish banner > It might require changes in the theme we are using or at least the > implementation of a script. > My idea is to have a set of images that change randomically and that are > appealing to the users. I just put some examples in my mockup, but it does > not have to be like that it can be just one image or something. > > 2. Launchpad Login > Implement this neat feature that give access to all Launchpad users > automatically throiugh the use of the OpenID module (more: > https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/OpenID). You can see it working in > The Fridge: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/ or in the Ubuntu Ecuador site: > http://www.ubuntu.ec/ > > In that way we can remove the captcha and not allow any unloged users to > upload material. You MUST login. That way we make people aware of the > importance of launchpad and its role in the Ubuntu Community. > > 3. Get, Make, Share Material > This menu is great, but we need to improve it in the Ubuntu.com spirit. Try > clicking the menues there ans you'll see what I mean. Basically we have to > use the Drupal menues to make it even easier to understand how to move > around the site. > > A little improvement of the pages should also be part of this change. > > 4. About SpreadUbuntu changes > Here we need to make the introduction quicker here and give the users access > to a couple of things: > > * Either a campaign, what to do and it's related material > * Access to material in general > > Little text and a picture to send people either to the DIY part or the > Campaign/Site part. > > 5. Campaign Focus area > Show the main campaign running now, and if we have several make it easy to > show them randomically. Here we should have a calender or list of > campaign-related events as well, which could use some space in point 8. > > I've taken a look at the Fridge calender, but it seems too general... It > might just be me. > > 6. the top right area > Here we need: > * A set of RSS feeds for material and campaigns > * A text box for search > * A place to choose your language > > Default language of this main page should be English, but the marketing > material being shown should comprehend ALL languages, not just English. > > 7. Media section > Should give a quick overview of what type of materials we have but be > smaller than the one we have today and probably more fancy. > > 8. Top Downloads / Most Popular > This area could show the top 10 downloads or the material with most points > and should be an area where images come and go dinamycally (JS). > > 9. Recent material > Get inspired and show the last 20 uploaded materials as dynamic content. > Flashy without flash if possible. > > I hope to get people interested on pulling this off. Please add your ideas > here or in this wiki page > > After some feedback I will be putting up a todo list in the wiki and making > a roadmap towards the release of www.spreadubuntu.com and > www.spreadubuntu.org > > Thanks in advance for your comments! > > Regards, > > Rubén Romero > https://launchpad.net/~huayra >
